The Kinks
Picture Book
[Verse 1]
Picture yourself when you're getting on
Sat by the fireside a-pondering on

[Chorus 1]
Picture book, pictures of your mama
Taken by your papa, a long time ago
Picture book, of people with each other
To prove they love each other
A long time ago

[Refrain]
Na, na, na, na, na na
Na, na, na, na, na na
Picture book
Picture book

[Verse 2]
A picture of you in your birthday suit
You sat in the sun on a hot afternoon

[Chorus 2]
Picture book, your mama and your papa
And fat old Uncle Charlie
Out boozing with their friends
Picture book, a holiday in August
Outside a bed and breakfast
In sunny Southend
Picture book, when you were just a baby
Those days when you were happy
A long time ago
[Refrain]
Na, na, na, na, na na
Na, na, na, na, na na
Picture book
Picture book
Picture book
Picture book

[Bridge]
Picture book
Na, na, na, na na
Na, na, na, na na
A-scooby-dooby-doo
Picture book
Na, na, na, na na
Na, na, na, na na
A-scooby-dooby-doo

[Outro]
Picture book, pictures of your mama
Taken by your papa a long time ago
A long time ago
Long time ago
Long time ago
Long time ago
Yeah, yeah, yeah
